Beachfront Bargain Hunt Guest Diagnosed with Neck Cancer by Doc Watching Show from Home

New York super doc diagnoses neck cancer while watching TV show.

Having a keen eye for details is a skill every doctor should master but to be able to diagnose a patient while you’re at home, watching television, is truly a gift. Believe it or not, this recently happened in New York, after an otolaryngologist tracked down a TV show guest to tell her that she might have neck cancer.

Ear, Nose, and Throat Doctor Tracks Down Woman on Social Media for Neck Cancer

This week story of beyond and above the call of duty in Medicine comes from bustling New York. Dr. Erich Voigt is an otolaryngologist (ear, neck, and throat doctor) at NYU Langone Health and, apparently, a fan of Beachfront Bargain Hunters TV series.

In a recent Facebook post, Dr. Vogt wrote that last week, he was watching an episode of the said TV show when he noticed something usual.

Voigt told a local news outlet that when Nicole McGuinness popped on screen, his doc senses started tingling. More specifically, Dr. Voigt saw that the 32-year-old woman had a suspicious lump on her neck. The lump could only be seen when the TV show’s guest was talking.

The doc wrote on his Facebook that he immediately realized that the woman has neck cancer. Now, instead of changing the channel, Dr. Voigt took to social media and asked all his bodies to help him track down the woman. Voigt wrote that the woman needs a fine needle biopsy and a sonogram because she definitely has a left thyroid mass.

Conclusion

He ultimately managed to get ahold of McGuinness. Of course, the woman ran to her doctor, who later confirmed the diagnostic.

McGuiness, who’s a cancer survivor, recently declared that Dr. Voigt saved her life.

The ear, nose, and throat doctor declared that he’s eager to meet his long-distance patient.

Remember that strange guy from high-school who never seems to be paying any attention to classes and is completely absorbed by his doodles and sketches? That’s was me 14 years ago. I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember - according to my mom, since I was in diapers - and that has never changed - except for the diaper part. For a very long time I thought that animations and graphic design are my calling, but two years ago I got side-tracked and started building an interactive website with a couple of friends. It received instant gratification from fellow internet users, and that’s when I realized that the virtual medium is where I belong. I can freely share my passions with others, work on ingenious new projects and find the most fascinating information about, well, everything. I spend most of my free time writing reviews for crazy gadgets on ArgyllFreePress, I work as an interactive designer for an independent firm and I also received my Fine Arts degree from the University of Oxford.
